Alicia drives her car 287.5 miles in 5 hours. What is the constant of proportionality that relates the total number of miles, y, to the number of hours, x? 0.02 57.5 287.5 5

Respuesta :

Answer:

  57.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The constant of proportionality is "k" in the equation ...

  y = kx

It can be found from values of x and y using ...

  k = y/x

For the given values, it is ...

  k = (287.5 mi)/(5 h) = 57.5 mi/h

The constant of proportionality relating miles to hours is 57.5.
